Legacy recruits

Reading all the DA's(AI52 mainly) complaining about Dabo's Family Plan at Clemson that seems to be succeeding better than any other plan ever at Clemson that didn't involve NCAA sanctions,I remember all the DA's wanting Batson fired a few years ago. Boy that crowd sure has the stupid, as does the Legacy hater crowd.

Some have a hard time understanding just what Clemson Family means when Dabo says it.Take Dawkins Jr for example,let's say he never gets above special teams his 4 years at Clemson,the value of having Senior back around the program for 4 years far outweighs the value of taking up a roster spot.

my only question is could he not serve the same purpose as a preferred walk-on with his dad paying his way so he doesn't count against the scholarship limit?
For example, CJ Mosley's little brother is currently a walk-on at Alabama and turned down scholarship offers to schools like Tulane and Western Kentucky.

The Joey Batson hate has finally came back

around. Majoring in Exercise Science, and earning the same certification he has (without Distinction), and reading Strength and Conditioning Journals, being in the Strength "world" so to say, I stood up for him to all the haters, that "knew from the eye test" that he was an inferior strength coach. You don't get the distinction in a C.S.C.S. without knowing what the heck youre doing. I wish we could go back and call out all those idiots that sit behind their keyboards, haven't worked out or ever played football at any level, and wanted to bash Joey Batson. Go suck an egg, because you have no idea what you're saying.
Oh, where we could have been right now if we'd just gotten rid of Batson back 3-4 years ago......lol

I'm pretty neutral on the legacy recruits situation. I don't necessarily like taking quite that many guys who probably won't make much, if any, real impact. At the same time I get why Dabo does it and I appreciate him running the program the way he does.
I don't think it's fair to say either way though that these legacy recruits make or break the team. It's impossible to know for sure, but it does also affect things like depth and special teams which we would all agree we've had a problem with for awhile now.
Until we win another natty though, I don't think the talk about the situation will go away.
